Description

(2S,3R,4E)-2-(Tetracosanoylamino)-1-[4-o-(4-o-α-D-Galactopyranosyl-β-D-Galactopyranosyl)-β-D-Glucopyranosyloxy]-4-Octadecen-3-Ol is a high-purity, complex glycosphingolipid derivative, specifically a globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) analog. This compound is of significant value in biochemical and pharmaceutical research due to its role as a specific receptor for Shiga-like toxins. It is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the fields of infectious disease studies, toxin neutralization, vaccine development, and glycobiology, where precise molecular interactions are critical.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a standard or substrate in studies of Shiga toxin and verotoxin binding mechanisms and pathogenesis.
• Diagnostic Development: Serves as a key component in the development of diagnostic assays and kits for the detection of bacterial toxins.
• Therapeutic Research: Investigated for use in toxin neutralization strategies and the development of anti-adhesion therapies.
• Vaccine Adjuvant Studies: Explored for its immunomodulatory properties in vaccine formulation research.
• Cell Biology: Utilized in cell membrane studies and lipid raft research to understand cell signaling and pathogen entry.
• Glycoconjugate Synthesis: Acts as a sophisticated building block for the chemical and enzymatic synthesis of more complex glycolipids.
